Answer:

• 1) Make sure you have installed the .NET framework 4.0.
• 2) Make sure the installation file is correctedly downloaded: "PAT3.Setup.XXX.msi". Some users accidentally rename the installation file with extra .exe in the end.
• 3) The last remedy is to download direct executable of PAT and run it directly without installation.

Q3: Cannot start PAT 3.exe on mono

Answer: If the error message informs that assembly System.Windows.Forms is missing, please get the packages libmono-winforms1.0-cil and libmono-winforms2.0-cil.
